You will find substantial differences between UDB, DB2/MVS, Oracle and SQL Server and all the others. I have worked at one time or another with the above mentioned and moving from one to another was fairly easy as a developer but for a DBA it was more complicated due to architecture differences in implementation.
Of course, maybe I am just a slow learner.
btw This guy was he the same one that said in a couple of years programmers won't be needed anymore or perhaps that 640K is all that you will ever need.
